Cricket Captain 2018

Do you like cricket? No? Then this game is definitely not for you, get out of this review section.

Another fine-tuned and highly polished effort from the International Cricket Captain team. Improved gameplay and graphics make this an excellent value-for-money buy. The addition of Afghanistan and Ireland to the international career mode allows one to captain either side to Test match, one day and Twenty20 glory. Domestic leagues from most of the major test playing nations are covered too. If you love bats, stats and sports simulation, you will adore Cricket Captain 2018. One small gripe, there's still no female spectators in the crowd. How's a guy meant to bowl a maiden over? Recommended.

I spent 30 minutes deciding the best Australian XI of all time, Ended up getting Bradman an average of 100. Games really fun and a lot cleaner and improved from 2017. The only bug I had was in career it didn't let me select "no 20 over side" but I went back and then reselected it and it worked

I'm sorry, I really wanted to like this game but ultimately it is repetitive and unrewarding. Nothing about the game is atrocious, but nothing is exceptional either and the sum total is a bit limp. To try to be constructive, Easy mode should be easy, not really hard. I appreciate that real life can throw up unusual results but I just became sick and tired of draws and loses to manifestly inferior opposition. I think I noticed a mild improvement in performance by playing ball-by-ball and mixing up the play. If so, this is a mistake. The casual player doesn't want to pour hours into a single match. Likewise, I was irritated by the warning that skipping a game would result in loss in performance. What's the point of that? To punish me for being insufficiently enthusiastic and for not playing it the way it 'should' be played? I'm the customer, get over yourselves. I realise it is a compromise in the balance between playability and realism, but stats for players along the lines of Footba...

Another year of Cricket Captain and same old same old. Buggy game which once again bears little reflection on the game of cricket. The effect you can have with the aggression controls and field settings is next to none, same as before. The game predecides whats going to happen regardless and theres little correlation between how it should work and how it does work, for example scoring faster and losing less wickets playing defensively on a great wicket or scoring fast and losing less wickets being aggressive on a bowlers paradise. Also WTF Childish Things, you can't even get the season scoring in FC to work properly. I have to put up with teams on higher points who have losses where I have draws because you aren't giving the right points for a draw, in fact, you're giving none and I'm losing table position to someone who's actually 10 points or more behind. GG...GG Thanks for the developer reply. #1 I've played countless hours of this game over the many iterations, the controls don'...

Cricket Captain 2018 is a version that has really lifted the ante. The new database is amazing with it bursting with historical players from each indvidual test nation. Leaving endless possibilities of historical match scenarios. The game play is solid and smooth. The new test nations have been added and they've kept the features of the game which have worked so well in the past. A sterling effort the game designers and a worthy addition to the Cricket Captain roster.

I've only played T20 and found the key differance between being all out for <100 in 12 overs and finishing 20 overs at 200+ with wickets left is utterly random luck as both results can be obtained starting from the same save and making the same selections. So either my choices are meanigless or making the right choices can still lead to utter failure, either way the result is out of my hands. Cricket Spectator would be more accurate title .

Aweful. Ive spent hours trying to figure out how to improve but this game makes absolutly random decision that ruin the game. The is no training to teach you how to play the game and even with a fairly decent knowledge of the game it throws it back in your face not allowing you to have any fun. Unless this game gets a major update and a complete rehaul to team progression and adding the ability to actully know how to win a match only then I would think about recomending this game. Definitely dont pay 25 NZD for this game. The sad thing is i actually wanted to like it, but instead it continues the tread of aweful cricket games. 2/10.

Very good game if you are experienced with cricket tactics but you need to use players with good stats and not just your faviourites to succeed.

Since august 2018 with the one of the two updates that month. Cricket Captain has been constantly freezing or in other words not responding after I select the to play the next match or select to bat and bowl after the toss. I want this issue fixed quickly it is impariring my enjoyment. Bring out another update to clear these bugs for good. Two updates ago is when this issue started for me
